Singapore, also known as the Lion City or the Asian Tiger, is jam-packed with activities from sight-seeing, dining, shopping and so much more that you'll probably like to have some downtime at the end of the day.

Pounding the pavement under the heat of the tropical sun can take its toll, whether you're a a digital nomad like me, a blissful couple on honeymoon, or a family with kids, there is possibly no better way to cool off and wash away the stress by taking a dip in Singapore's most amazing rooftop pools.

The cool water, the stunning views, and a refreshing drink are all you need to rejuvenate yourself. If you don't know where to stay in Singapore, I can highly recommend you choose one of these amazing Singapore hotels with infinity pool.

If you are on a budget and rather stay in a smaller hotel without pool, you can visit some of the below Singapore pools with a daily pass. Simply enquire at the hotel via email or social media if they offer da day pass and don't be upset if they do not, some pools are simply for hotel guests only and that's totally okay.

Marina Bay Sands

Search online for the best rooftop pools in the world and you'll definitely see Marina Bay Sands leading the list.

This is actually the world's highest and largest infinity pool. It is perched 57 floors up of this 5-star luxury hotel. And really, it is not dubbed as “swimming on top of the world” for nothing!

You will be in awe of the size of this pool. My jaw certainly dropped when I first saw this pool! It is actually longer than the height of the Eiffel Tower and supported by three towers. Imagine that?!

Swimming to the edge of the pool is truly a thrilling experience and those magnificent views are simply to die for!

It's not just the exterior that showcases a mix of two different worlds but they are also reflected in this Singapore hotel pool area. There are 3 pools in total, set across different levels showing how man's creation can work so well with greenery.

Beyond the pool you have a scenic view of the South China Sea which is covered with fleets and fleets of ships.

W Singapore Sentosa Cove

W Singapore's WET Pool is one of the largest outdoor resort pools in Singapore. Its staggering size is a favourite for in-house guests as well as the public.

Outside guests can gain pool access for a fee from Monday to Thursday from 7am to 7pm at SG$45 per person.

The pool area is beautifully landscaped with trees and lush greens that reminiscent a vacation away from the city. As you dive under, you have the sonic waves from the underwater speakers as your background song.

You can also enjoy impeccable service from the W when you opt to use one of the private poolside cabanas complete with an iPad, iPod and even a mist fan. Cabanas are first-come, first-serve basis and will change over in intervals of two hours.

Fancy a drink or two? Of course you do not need to go out of the water as you can swim-up to the WET Bar to order a cocktail or snack.

There are inflatables, from air beds, floating chairs to beach balls and even a water table tennis area. If you just want to tan up, the huge daybeds are ready for you.

After sunset, the pool is beautifully illuminated making it even more stunning than it already is in the daylight.

The WET Pool is open 24/7 for guests staying at the W, so you can really have a dip whenever you feel like it.

Hard Rock Hotel Singapore

Resorts World Sentosa's Hard Rock Hotel Singapore offers a water playground at its best.

It's not the usual pool you see in most hotels but it's an amazing man-made beach sans the salty water, of course. There are cabanas you can relax in. There's also a shallow part for kids and even a volleyball court.

The pool, the palm trees dotting the surroundings and the swim-up bar make for a tropical stay at the heart of Singapore metro. But really, it feels like as if you're miles away from the city!

ONE°15 Marina Club

The designer infinity pool of ONE°15 Marina features a transparent wall so you won't need one of these fancy (and pricey) underwater camera cases to get those swimming shots! What a bonus!

You can take swimming lessons, join a Aquafit class or try yourself on Aquabiking, Aquapole, Aquapole Boxing or go for a scuba diving course. If that's not enough, definitely take up the photo opportunity with the mermaids.

Other than that, ONE°15 Marina is mainly a yacht club, so feel free to take advantage of booking a boat ride to the nearby islands of Malaysia, Indonesia or Thailand.

These refreshing watery escapes are a sure-fire way to relax in the hustle bustle of Singapore.
